SKF 72mm OD 8.5″ Width 64mm ID Locating Ring FRB8.5/72

SKF FRB 8.5/72 Locating Ring

The SKF FRB 8.5/72 is a precision-engineered locating ring designed to secure bearings axially within their housings, ensuring optimal performance and longevity in various industrial applications.

Key Features

• Dimensions: Inner Diameter (ID) of 64 mm, Outer Diameter (OD) of 72 mm, and a Width of 8.5 mm.
• Material: Constructed from high-quality steel, providing durability and resistance to wear.
• Compatibility: Suitable for use with SNL 207 and SNL 507-606 housed units, as well as 1207 E and 1207 EKTN9 bearings.
• Temperature Range: Operates effectively between -20°C and +500°C, accommodating a wide range of industrial environments.

Applications

Locating rings like the SKF FRB 8.5/72 are essential in applications where precise axial positioning of bearings is critical. They are commonly used in split housings to compensate for differences between bearing seat dimensions and bearing widths, ensuring secure and stable bearing placement.

Installation Guidelines

For optimal performance, it is recommended to use two locating rings per housing, placing one on each side of the bearing. If only one ring is used, it should be installed on the same side as the lock nut to maintain proper axial security.
